As some of my friends know, I’m all about silly holidays like the random ones BlueMountain used to have in their list. Because, who DOESN’T want to celebrate International Hat Day, really?
This morning, someone on the ComedySportz forum had posted a link to Towel Day, an annual event commemorating the life and works of author Douglas Adams.
As The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy was one of the first non-Trek science fiction works that captured my attention (largely because my 12-year-old self responded to the cheerful irreverence of the book), I find it fitting to remember the guy who wrote it.
So, my towel is in my CSz bag, and yes, I will have it nearby all day.
So where’s YOUR towel today?
C’mon tell me.
All the hoopiest froods are doing it.
My towel is hanging in the bathroom…unless it’s fallen off and is partying with the dogs!
Sad to say I have no towel. There are many towels in the bathroom, but none I’d claim as mine or take with me.
I believe some of them are beginning to build up sapient societies.
I’ve read a couple of his books, Melissa, but I was never a huge fan of Doug Adams. He definitely had an irreverent sense of humor tho.
